Republican Ken Buck: FBI Director Christopher Wray Is ‘Doing His Very Best’
Breitbart ^ | 7/13/23 | JORDAN DIXON-HAMILTON

Posted on 07/14/2023 3:41:48 AM PDT by cotton1706

Republican Rep. Ken Buck (CO) broke from his GOP colleagues on the House Judiciary Committee and thanked FBI Director Christopher Wray for his service on Wednesday, then spoke with CNN and claimed Wray is “doing his very best.”

House Republicans on the Judiciary Committee grilled Wray at a Wednesday hearing over issues related to alleged civil liberties violations by the government. For example, Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) pressed Wray for answers on the agency’s involvement with investigations into Hunter Biden.

Gaetz bluntly asked Wray, “Are you protecting the Bidens?” to which Wray responded, “Absolutely not.”

However, Buck used his allotted time to praise Wray and the FBI. Buck recognized that Wray was appointed assistant attorney general of the Justice Department’s criminal division by former Republican President George W. Bush and ultimately landed at the top of the FBI after former President Donald Trump appointed him to his position.

Buck told Wray:

According to Wikipedia, you’re still a registered Republican. And I hope you don’t change your party affiliation after this hearing is over. But I want to thank you. I want to thank you for leading an agency, as you mentioned in your opening statement, that protects Americans from foreign terrorists, an agency that protects Americans from spies from China and Russia, and cybercrime and public corruption and organized crime and drug cartels and human traffickers and white-collar criminals.

snip

Buck then spoke with CNN’s Jake Tapper on Wednesday and reiterated his praise for Wray, saying the FBI director is “doing his very best to make sure that the FBI follows the evidence.”

Buck also told Tapper he believes “the FBI is largely treated unfairly in how it has been perceived and portrayed in the public.”

Buck added that calls to reduce the FBI’s budget are “really irresponsible.”

I wonder if Ken Buck has had a "visit" from somebody within the government.

He's talking like the country-club set.

Buck reminds us that we still have work to do to continue to squeeze the S%%t out of the Republican party. He is obviously compromised and being blackmailed.
He is the biggest “name” to say he is not sure about impeaching Crime Boss Joey.
Any questions?

We did not get rid of all of the RINO and GROPElite cockroaches led by the Ryan-Romney-Bush roots.

But who is controlling this guy’s information and contacts?

No democrat will vote against Mayorkas (DHS) or the 7th floor of the FBI. We can lose only one or two republicans.

Wray is “doing his very best.”

His very best is mediocre.

Rino Ken Buck is a Manchurian republican and most likely has been involved in illicit sexual activities of the youthful kind.

He is compromised at best or more likely willingly operating as “managed opposition” for personal gain, in a nutshell corrupt to the core.

It just takes one renegade like him to keep the GOP from having success. The Dems can always count on their people giving them victories. But our side cannot stick together.

And the media will certainly make the most of this, with headlines likely to be something like “GOP strongly supports Wray”.

OMG, we are doomed!

I never thought Buck was an IDIOT.

And, that’s one of the takeaways from this farcical testimony.
